Had the same thing with All Balls better than it was but still movement I guess they are cheap for a reason,my road race bikes had zero free play and a jewel like movement so I don't thin there should be any really.

Anymore than 60% of the free length adjustment then you need a stronger spring rate,hopefully you realise just winding the spring up has no effect on the spring rate.

No end of problems with some I've seen and they don't even sell them with a working clutch,like most Italian products they look great but are nailed together by Luigi whilst having a fag.

Betas aren't made very well are they so worth a punt on the TRS.

Fair play to dadof2 he's caught a few in the keep net with this wind up.

Why on earth would they do that.

I stopped road racing 18 months ago but to give you an idea of how cheap trials is here is a typical cost for the one day meetings I did with EMRA. Entry £155 Tyres £450 Fuel £40 Oil £25 Granted winning a big race paid +£400 but most people don't win and on top there would be routine replacement of parts and if you crash you might be looking at hundreds of pounds worth of damage. Trials is cheap as chips.

That sir is fecking awesome stuff,bravo

You should offer your services to motoGP teams they spend millions trying to sort suspension out when you could do it easily.

Totally disagree with that,suspension is far more critical on a road race bike and infinitely more difficult to get right than on a trials bike.

Very much doubt it's a dry clutch,surely it should be obvious.Fill the tank with ball bearings and diesel and agitate until you are happy it's clear,flush with petrol.

Yeah going to need stiffer springs front and back,still at least with a Mont there's no repair bills.

Cranking up the preload or getting a heavier spring do two different things,increasing preload does not change the spring rate at all.

Unless you are at the upper or lower end of typical weight I'd say the stock suspension probably has wide enough adjustment.I imagine the manual has the correct sag settings for your 4rt this is where you should start,if you've got to wind the preload in or out massively to get this correct you need different springs. Easy enough to measure what travel you are using most of the time with cable ties,the rest is probably down to personal preference.

Try opening the throttle a bit.
